    Gotham!



    http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0d1zpt6k5OI

    What it is - a new show premiering in the fall about Gotham city before Batman, Poison Ivy, Penguin, Riddler, Cat Woman etc.

    The main character is Jim Gordon. (Far left in the picture) The timing is from the murder of Bruce's parents and forward. The story is supposed to be like a prequel to Batman's story. Basically CSI Gotham. I don't know it looks interesting to me c:

    It premieres in the fall on FOX everyone!

    Saw this when I watched 24 last night. Interesting concept nonetheless. I was hoping it would show Bruce's transition into Batman. But that would obviously cap the shows longevity. Let's just hope they don't screw it up.

    Oh they better not. I'll be very disappointed. Tbh I really expected the actor to play Gordon would look at least some what like Gary Oldman.

    Not really sure how interesting the show would be showing a Batman related show without any special villains or Batman. Seems like every other mystery solving? or action? show out there with a batman tag stuck on it. Much rather have an Arrow-like TV show showing origins of the batman and his villains.

    I love Arrow. But it does have Penguin, Cat Woman, Poison Ivy and Riddler. I'd like a batman show like Arrow but I don't know how that'd go

    Just watched the trailer, and it looks pretty good. I really hope they don't mess it up. I've liked all of the Batman movies, shows, etc so far, and if they do this right, it would tie it all together well.

    From my POV, it really looks like CSI Gotham with the Input of different antagonists who'll make up the crimes. (Like if CSI NY or Miami had antagonists that commit the crimes and put up new barriers for the cops)

    Watching 1st episode atm, I don't like that Gordon isn't played by sirius black (same guy from batman movies )
    other than that, looks to me like "just another CSI show" only with a better theme
